The stuff they sell at CostPlus is a different animal. It's the regular retail version of the Mai Tai mix and it's putrid. The store under discussion is the Mai Tai concentrate, which is used by the TV restaurants and only occasionally offered to the public.

The 5.5oz cans of Ocean Spray 100% white grapefruit juice are excellent! It's the exact same juice they have in their larger bottles but in an easier to use size. I get them from Amazon for around $34 for 48 cans. Shipping is free.
I keep them in my pantry room setting one or two cans in the fridge which I replace as they are used.
I hope this helps.

Anything bought in a retail store (other than Trader Vic's) has been the dreaded "mix." The concentrate is basically a replacement for orgeat and orange curacao with some cane sugar. The explanation given to me by the long serving head bartender at the Atlanta Trader Vic's, Joel, is that while it does simplify making the drink, the main reason the concentrate was developed was to ensure the needed ingredients are available to TVs around the world. It gives them a higher degree of consistency. Their goal is to ensure that a Trader Vic's Mai Tai is the same no matter which Trader Vic's you go to around the world. Joel also added that he will make your Mai Tais from scratch all night long if you ask. It is no bother to him to add the extra two pours to make you a Mai Tai the old way.

Rixzantis, unless they've changed the label, the recommended recipe should be right there on the bottle. I'm uploading a photo of my bottle, in case they have.

I like to make my own "Mai Tai Mix". I mix up a 12 oz, batch of orange curacao, orgeat and turbanado sugar syrup following the original proportions, and keep it in the fridge.
To make a Mai Tai I use 1 oz. of fresh lime, 1 oz of my "Mix", and two ounces of what ever rum combination I'm in the mood for. My favorite rums to use are: Appleton 12 year old and El DCorado 12 year old; Eldorado dark and Zaya; and Kohala Bay and El Dorado 12 year old. I enjoy making the original recipes for the Jet Pilot, 1934 Zombie, the Hukilau etc. but when I'm tired or lazy or tired and lazy. . . I just reach for my Mai Tai Mix and all is well with the world!

Thanks Doctor Coruba!
The new bottles do not have the recipe on them.
Just doesn't seem like much liquid with that recipe.
I tried one last night:
1 oz. Lime
1/2 oz. concentrate
1-1/2 oz. Myers
1 oz. Smith & Cross
Lots of crushed ice.
Tasted good!

Maybe need to do some more experimentation.....
With most of the Beachbum's recipes, I cut back on the lime.
With this combo it was not too citrus-y
